"Der Friede sichert den Sieg der deut

under such conditions to want war.
Therefore all social[ialists] of all countries are in favor of peace.
"Kommt aber der Krieg dennoch,

derart von Kopf zu Fuss umstiirzen, und einen
solchen Triimmerhaufen hinterlassen, dass die alte
kapitalistische Gesellschaft unmftglicher wiirde
als je, and dass die soziale Revolution zwar um
10 oder 15 Jahre hinausgeschoben wiirde, dann
aber auch siegen miisste nach um so rascherem
